Many different phrases have been used to describe the American government, but MS NOW legal analyst Melissa Murray has managed to invent one so ridiculous it must never have been heard before. On Thursday’s episode of Deadline: White House, Melissa Murray claimed the government is “held together by friendship bracelets and norms,” a bizarre and childish description of her very own field of study to say the least. Just before that, Murray also criticized Congress for failing to use resources to “make the streets safer,” a curious accusation considering MS NOW’s commentary on Trump’s police and security methods in the past.

Talking about the Justice Department under President Trump, host Nicolle Wallace wondered, “I mean, Melissa, I think a lot of people watching wonder why it can’t be stopped.”
